Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2342: Fight for the Legacy

The Radiant Saint Masters in the surroundings could not help but gather around together, forming a huge circle around Jian Chen. They all stared at him as he continued to comprehend the diagram while under the stele’s protection.

At that moment, Jian Chen had become the centre of attention.

Originally, Jian Chen did stand out at all with his two-colored soulcore in this crowd of Radiant Godkings. In fact, he did not receive any attention at all. He was someone insignificant who could have been forgotten accidentally.

But now, everyone focused on him.

“Who is this person? He only has a two-colored soulcore, yet he hasn’t been pushed out by the power of the stele. Is his talent greater than all of ours?”

“That’s impossible. Chang Yang was only tested to be a one star genius. How could he exceed us…”

“There are many nine star geniuses among us here, but we’ve all been pushed out by the power of the stele. Only Chang Yang remains in a state of cultivation. Is Chang Yang’s talent really greater than all of ours?”

“Are you saying that Chang Yang has surpassed nine star geniuses? T- this…”

…

The Radiant Saint Masters discussed with one another. Many of their gazes towards Jian Chen flickered.

Donglin Yanxue stood beside Donglin Qiushui as she looked at the determined Jian Chen with mixed feelings.

Within the Radiant Saint Hall, she was the only person who knew about Jian Chen’s true talent. As a result, she had always believed that Jian Chen possessed the most right in obtaining the legacy.

As a result, she was the only unsurprised person present after witnessing this. As a matter of fact, she believed that this was supposed to be.

“I sure have underestimated Chang Yang,” Donglin Qiushui also sighed in amazement.

“Hmph, have can he obtain a Grand Exalt’s legacy so easily. Sure, he’s still comprehending the diagram, but that doesn’t mean he’ll definitely get the legacy…” barked a Radiant Godking enviously from within the crowd.

However, just when he finished speaking, the protective power vanished silently. At that moment, Jian Chen became just like everyone else. He had lost the protection of the stele.

Many of the Radiant Godkings present let out sighs of relief when they saw that. Naturally, they believed that Jian Chen was the same as him; they thought he had failed and been forced out by the power of the stele.

However, before they could celebrate, a heavy, primordial presence filled with age suddenly appeared and enveloped the surroundings.

The hearts of all the Radiant Godkings shuddered under the influence of this primordial presence. They all looked over with narrowed eyes.

A dazzling ball of light suddenly flew out from beneath the stele. It was only the size of a fist, but it possessed the presence of the laws of the world. It shone with dazzling light, illuminating the entire place.

“It’s the Grand Exalt’s legacy…”

“Heavens, it’s actually the Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint…”

…

It went without saying that all the Hallowed Saint Master gathered here knew what the ball of light was. However, the power of laws were just too dense. As soon as it appeared, it interfered with the laws in the surroundings, affecting the order there. The various phenomena clearly demonstrated that this was the Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint.

Immediately, everyone’s eyes turned bloodshot as their hearts thumped heavily. Immediately, some of the Hallowed Saint Masters were overcome by their greed, and they flew towards the Grand Exalt’s legacy as quickly as they could.

Grand Exalts were the undisputed sovereigns of the world. They were the most powerful existences, so their legacies were naturally the most powerful and most terrifying. It was a fortune enough to change a person’s fate. No one could resist its temptation.

At this moment, no one paid attention to Jian Chen anymore, nor did anyone consider why the Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint had appeared. The only thought that remained in their heads was to obtain it regardless of the price.

However, just when they charged towards the imprint without any regard, it turned into a streak of light and arrived before Jian Chen like the distance between them never even existed in the first place. It hovered there silently with dazzling light.

Jian Chen’s eyes opened slowly at that moment as well. He stood up steadily and glanced at the crazed Hallowed Saint Master indifferently. He grabbed the imprint casually.

The Grand Exalt’s legacy was actually an imprint of consciousness. It contained information left behind by the previous master of the Tower of Radiance.

As Jian Chen grasped the imprint, he could clearly feel that a tremendous amount of information was stored within it.

However, when all the Hallowed Saint Masters saw Jian Chen grab the imprint with such ease, they were taken aback. However, they all bellowed out soon afterwards.

“Hand over the Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint…”

“The Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint isn’t something you can possess. Hand it over…”

“Chang Yang, give me what’s in your hand. I’ll give you my Space Ring in exchange. It contains all the wealth I’ve managed to accumulate in the past three hundred thousand years…”

…

All the Radiant Godkings charged towards Jian Chen in a crazed manner. They directly targeted the legacy imprint in Jian Chen’s hand. Many of them even condensed Radiant Swords, swinging them towards Jian Chen’s arm. They surged with killing intent.

Some people even formed seals with both hands, condensing huge hands out of Radiant Saint Force that fell on Jian Chen. They wanted to take Jian Chen away.

This was a Grand Exalt’s legacy. Obtaining it would mean rising up. The temptation was far too great. All these Radiant Godkings had forgotten about how it was forbidden to kill other disciples within the Radiant Saint Hall as a result.

At this moment, Laws of the Hallowed even more powerful than what most Radiant Godkings possessed suddenly appeared, condensing into a huge hand. It swung towards over a dozen of the Radiant Godkings that charged towards Jian Chen before reaching towards Jian Chen with even greater speed.

The hand belonged to the lord of the Sky Gazing Peak, one of the ninety-nine main peaks.

Before the Grand Exalt’s legacy, he also struggled to resist the temptation. He began to take part in the action.

“Chang Yang, give the Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint to me. I’ll keep you safe,” Donglin Qiushui struck out as well. She was also the lord of one of the ninety-nine main peaks. She kept the lord of the Sky Gazing Peak busy as she rapidly approached Jian Chen.

“Hmph. The Grand Exalt’s legacy imprint is mine.” A cold snort rang out. A young man who seemed to be in his twenties appeared behind Jian Chen silently. He had already reached out with lightning speed, arriving near Jian Chen in a single instance.

The young man was extremely powerful as well. He was also a lord of one of the ninety-nine main peaks, the lord of the Scorching Sun Peak. His individual strength was no less than Donglin Qiushui or the lord of the Sky Gazing Peak.
